If I had a #realhousewives tagline, this would be it! Happy Sunday, darling friends 💗

Starting to work on primary bedroom #designplans i

Starting to work on primary bedroom #designplans in my new place and I’m lowkey missing my previous primary bedroom 😭 I probably had 4 months or so of this room being “complete” before I had to move (always happens at the most inconvenient times, am I right?)

I am totally up in the air if I should wallpaper again or paint. I haven’t painted a rental in many years but I’m strongly considering paint as a way to mix it up. Help me decide below!

the first signs of spring weather and my third watch of #withlovemeghan @meghan @netflix later, I’m ready for throw a Spring garden party 💐 My new place doesn’t have a yard like the last but I will make an oversized concrete space work just the same 👏🏾

I will take any excuse to use this tablecloth and matching napkins from my 2023 Paris trip (Indian block print makers and sellers) And lots of other pretty things from @helenitahome, @surlatable & my cristal d’Arque collection 💗

I’ll be sharing my spring tabletop favorites under $50 later this week on the blog -> LotsofSass.com (unrelated but while we’re here, totally feeling a rebrand on the horizon 👀👀 college me and today me are two different people 😂)

Happy Monday, darling friends 💛

My first week of March #dopaminemenu is 110% fuele

My first week of March #dopaminemenu is 110% fueled by fresh flowers and admiring flower inspo 😍 Ready for Spring and the joy of seeing new life in the form of blooms 💗

Two table books featured: Living with Flowers by @aerin & Garden Roses by @gracerosefarm 🌸

Happy Saturday, friends! I hope you #findthefun this weekend. I’ll be making time for my third watch of #withlovemeghan on @netflix @meghan (love you so much, Meghan!) xoxo

another really fun #colorstory coming together in

another really fun #colorstory coming together in the condo 😍 I know I totally should wait until the room is finished but honestly, I cannot deal with how much the heritage vine @chasingpaper paper has already transformed my #homeoffice ! For the most part, I’m using all my same office furniture, although this space is bigger, with a few pieces from around the house like my #cornerbanquette I waited 8+ months for (do you guys remember that lol what is my life sometimes).

Art has been installed like this lovely painting by @kfb_etc and my signed Jonathan Green print and a few more pieces around the room 💗

What’s next?
1. Some type of push pin or bulletin board for all my letters and notes and room planning inspo
2. Window treatment swap from the stark white blinds to something rattan or wicker
3. Potentially a new desk (or swapping for my old dining table that’s too small)
4. Another lamp & the second wall sconce once I find the missing pieces from the move

I’m feeling pretty happy that I purchased so many pieces I loved over the past few years which makes settling into the new place a lot easier. Also happily turning into an amateur #artcollector Happy Sunday, friends! #PeelStickLove

Leave any questions about the move or the new home or design inspo below 💗

While everyone is dreaming of a bright Spring, I am still stuck on the warmth of winter and the comfiness of muted tones. I had too much fun setting this warm winter dinner table for four right before I moved out of my previous home and loved that I was able to highlight many of the small, women-owned brands that I love like @estellecoloredglass, @maisonvenu & @halfpastsevenhome 💗💗 Are your eyes on Spring or are you comfy in the winter season?

Working on the most fun color story for this room

Working on the most fun color story for this room and I feel like this art piece by @imitationbyjerell was just what I needed 🖼️ Just working on finding two martini tables and then the living room will officially be done. Feeling really good about having a done space in the new home after only three weeks of living here and can’t wait to share the full view 🦋

As always, I’m grateful to support independent artists, especially when the arts are under attack. This week on @substack I shared seven more #BlackArtist to admire and collect: https://whereartmeetshome.substack.com/p/seven-black-artist-to-follow #artcollector #whereartmeetshome #artcurator

letting this serve as a reminder to use all your #nicethings . Pull out the fine china for take-out meals. Light the taper candles on a Monday just because. Drink your matcha out of cristal to brighten your morning. Set the dinner table for leftovers. Light the “fancy” candles on a rainy day.

95% of the things we save for the perfect occasion or special event end up collecting dust and never being used. Personally challenging myself to add more #microjoys to my days during this hectic season 💗💗

A little delayed as I gathered resources available

A little delayed as I gathered resources available! On @substack today l’m sharing resources for artists impacted by fires, individual artists asks & artists offering free replacements 🖼️

This list will continue to evolve as I learn about more resources and requests so expect changes over the new few days, weeks and, probably, months.

Where Art Meets Home has been such a fun place to share art & artists and in this time I need, one way we can help is by supporting the creatives we love to get back on their feet #california #wildfires #supportartists
